Re: [Digital BW] Glop on Ilford Smooth Pearl?

2005-03-01 by Jon Witsell

Hi Steve,

Well, since the Smooth Pearl board is going into a book, I think the wax will be best. I think 
I'll drop by Talas tomorrow and get a can of it. Good exercise anyway.

I've been using the Premier spray since it first came out, but I'm not wild about the fumes. 
And since it is snowing outside, I'm not going to be working out there...

Jon
